Detailed Implementation

[0045] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used only to describe differences in name and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Physical quantities in formulas, unless otherwise specified, should be understood as basic quantities in the International System of Units (SI), or derived quantities derived from basic quantities through mathematical operations such as multiplication, division, differentiation, or integration.

[0047] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0048] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the flow error adjustment mechanism provided in this embodiment of the invention is applicable to a rotor-type water meter. The flow error adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment assembly I100 installed on the rectifier 200. The adjustment assembly I100 includes an adjustment plate I110 and an adjustment member I120 connected to the adjustment plate I110. The adjustment plate I110 is movably connected to the rectifier 200. The adjustment member I120 is used to adjust the rotation of the adjustment plate I110 to change the water flow angle through the rectifier 200.

[0049] In an optional embodiment, the adjusting member I120 can be configured as a connecting rod, which drives the adjusting plate I110 to swing by pushing and pulling to change the water flow angle. Alternatively, the connecting rod can be driven by a slider slidably fitted to the bracket 300. The slider can be manually operated and its position is locked by the friction between the slider and the bracket 300. The adjusting member I120 may also include a bolt and a spring. Tightening the bolt pushes the adjusting plate I110 to swing. The spring is installed between the adjusting plate I110 and the bracket 300 and can drive the adjusting plate I110 to swing in the opposite direction. The swing angle of the adjusting plate I110 can be changed by tightening or loosening the bolt.

[0050] In this embodiment, the adjusting member I120 includes an adjusting ring 121 rotatably connected to the rectifier 200; the adjusting plate I110 is pivotally connected to the rectifier 200 about an axis extending radially along the adjusting ring 121, and the adjusting ring 121 and the adjusting plate I110 are hinged.

[0051] Specifically, the regulating ring 121, rectifier 200, and impeller 700 are coaxially arranged. The regulating vane I 110 is offset from the axis of the regulating ring 121, and the axis of rotation of the regulating vane I 110 is approximately parallel to the radial direction of the regulating ring 121. When the regulating ring 121 rotates relative to the rectifier 200 around its own axis, the regulating ring 121 can drive the regulating vane I 110 to rotate, thereby changing the angle between the regulating vane I 110 and the section perpendicular to the axis of the rectifier 200. This changes the impact force of the water flow on the blades of the impeller 700 under the same flow velocity conditions, and thus changes the rotational speed of the impeller 700. When the flow rate is represented by the number of rotations of the impeller 700, the flow rate error can be calibrated.

[0052] Furthermore, multiple regulating vanes I110 are provided, and these multiple regulating vanes I110 are spaced apart circumferentially along the regulating ring 121. Specifically, the multiple regulating vanes I110 are evenly distributed circumferentially along the regulating ring 121, and the multiple regulating vanes I110 can be adjusted to deflect synchronously by the regulating ring 121, which can ensure that when the water flow impacts the impeller 700, the impact force on the impeller 700 is evenly distributed circumferentially.

[0053] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the adjusting component I120 also includes: shaft I122, swing arm 123 and transmission component 124; one end of the swing arm 123 is connected to the shaft I122, the transmission component 124 is slidably hinged to the other end of the swing arm 123, and the transmission component 124 is connected to the adjusting ring 121.

[0054] The swing arm 123 can be driven to rotate by rotating the shaft I 122. The swing arm 123 drives the transmission component 124. The transmission component 124 can drive the adjustment ring 121 to rotate by gear transmission or by friction on the outer circumference of the adjustment ring 121.

[0055] In addition, a baffle 125 is installed on the bracket 300. The baffle 125 abuts against the top of the swing arm 123 and the baffle 125 is fitted to the circumferential surface of the shaft I 122, thereby limiting and fixing the swing arm 123 and the shaft I 122.

[0056] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the transmission component 124 includes: a pin 1241, an arm 1242, and a swing shaft 1243; one end of the arm 1242 is connected to the pin 1241, and the other end of the arm 1242 is connected to the swing shaft 1243. The pin 1241 is parallel to the swing shaft 1243, the pin 1241 is slidably hinged to the swing arm 123, and the swing shaft 1243 is connected to the adjusting ring 121.

[0057] Specifically, the bracket 300 is provided with a slide groove 304, and the swing shaft 1243 is slidably engaged in the slide groove 304. When the swing arm 123 is driven to swing, the swing arm 123 can drive the swing shaft 1243 to slide along the slide groove 304, which in turn can drive the arm 1242 to move laterally. The arm 1242 drives the swing shaft 1243, thereby actuating the adjusting ring 121 to rotate.

[0058] like Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the rectifier 200 is mounted on the bracket 300, which has a rectifier port 301, a branch port I 302, and a branch port II 303. The rectifier 200 is mounted on the rectifier port 301. The flow error adjustment mechanism also includes an adjustment component II 400 and an adjustment component III 500. The adjustment component II 400 is mounted on the branch port I 302 to adjust the flow cross-sectional area of ​​the branch port I 302, and the adjustment component III 500 is mounted on the branch port II 303 to adjust the flow cross-sectional area of ​​the branch port II 303.

[0059] The flow error adjustment mechanism is installed inside the housing 600. The rectifier port 301, branch port I 302 and branch port II 303 are all located between the inlet port 601 and the outlet port 602. A portion of the water flows through the rectifier port 301 and passes through the rectifier 200, and the angle of the water flow relative to the impeller blades is adjusted by the adjustment component I 100. The other portion of the water flows to the outlet port 602 through the branch port I 302 and the branch port II 303 respectively. The diversion flow rate is adjusted by the adjustment component II 400 and the adjustment component III 500 respectively, thereby increasing the flow measurement range.

[0060] like Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the adjustment assembly II 400 includes: an adjustment plate II 410 and an adjustment member II 420; the adjustment plate II 410 is slidably connected to the bracket 300 and the adjustment plate II 410 covers the branch entrance I 302; the adjustment member II 420 is connected to the bracket 300 or the adjustment plate II 410 and the adjustment member II 420 is used to adjust and lock the adjustment plate II 410.

[0061] In an optional embodiment, the adjusting member II 420 may include a bolt connected to the adjusting piece II 410, and the bolt is slidably engaged with a slide rail on the bracket 300. Loosening the bolt allows it to slide along the slide rail, thereby moving the adjusting piece II 410 within the branch opening I 302, thus changing the area of ​​the branch opening I 302 covered by the adjusting piece II 410. After adjustment, the bolt can be tightened to lock the adjusting piece II 410. In addition, the adjusting member II 420 may also include a snap-fit ​​component. When the adjusting piece II 410 slides into place, the snap-fit ​​component fixes the adjusting piece II 410 to the bracket 300, thereby locking the adjusting piece II 410.

[0062] In this embodiment, the adjusting plate II 410 is connected to a rack 411, and the adjusting member II 420 includes a gear 421 and a shaft II 422 connecting the gear 421. Rotation of the shaft II 422 drives the gear 421, which meshes with the rack 411, thereby driving the adjusting plate II 410 to slide relative to the bracket 300, thus changing the area of ​​the adjusting plate II 410 covering the branch opening I 302. Furthermore, a first plug 423 is threaded onto the shaft II 422. Tightening the first plug 423 allows it to abut against the bracket 300, thereby achieving relative locking between the shaft II 422, the first plug 423, and the bracket 300.

[0063] like Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the adjustment assembly Ⅲ500 includes: an adjustment plate Ⅲ510 and an adjustment member Ⅲ520; the adjustment plate Ⅲ510 is rotatably connected to the bracket 300, and the adjustment plate Ⅲ510 shields the branch entrance Ⅱ303; the swivel axis of the adjustment plate Ⅲ510 is parallel to the adjustment plate Ⅲ510, or the swivel axis of the adjustment plate Ⅲ510 coincides with the adjustment plate Ⅲ510; the adjustment member Ⅲ520 connects the bracket 300 and / or the adjustment plate Ⅲ510, and the adjustment member Ⅲ520 is used to adjust and lock the adjustment plate Ⅲ510.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, the adjusting member III 520 is connected to the bracket 300 or the adjusting plate III 510, or the bracket 300 and the adjusting plate III 510 are respectively connected to the adjusting member III 520. The adjusting member III 520 may be a bolt or a snap fastener, one of the bracket 300 and the adjusting plate III 510 is connected to the bolt or snap fastener, and the bolt or snap fastener abuts against the other of the bracket 300 and the adjusting plate III 510, thereby locking the adjusting plate III 510 relative to the bracket 300.

[0065] In this embodiment, the adjusting member Ⅲ520 includes: a shaft Ⅲ521 and a second plug 522 connected to the shaft Ⅲ521. The shaft Ⅲ521 is rotatably connected to the bracket 300, and one end of the shaft Ⅲ521 is connected to the adjusting piece Ⅲ510. Twisting the shaft Ⅲ521 causes the adjusting piece Ⅲ510 to swing around the axis of the shaft Ⅲ521, thereby changing the area of ​​the adjusting piece Ⅲ510 that covers the branch entrance Ⅱ303. By tightening the second plug 522, the second plug 522 can abut against the bracket 300, thereby locking the shaft Ⅲ521 and preventing the shaft Ⅲ521 and the second plug 522 from rotating relative to the bracket 300.

[0066] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, regulating component I100 can adjust the impact force on the impeller 700 blades, regulating component II400 adjusts the flow area of ​​branch outlet I302 by translating regulating plate II410, and regulating component III500 adjusts the flow area of ​​branch outlet II303 by tilting regulating plate III510. The regulating accuracy of regulating components II400 and III500 increases progressively. The combined use of regulating components I100, II400 and III500 can not only expand the error adjustment range, but also make the flow performance curve of the water meter smoother.

[0067] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the spiral vane water meter provided in this embodiment of the invention includes: a housing 600, an impeller 700, and a flow error adjustment mechanism described in the above embodiment; the housing 600 has an inlet 601 and an outlet 602, the impeller 700 is installed inside the housing 600, and the impeller 700 is driven to rotate by the water flow from the inlet 601 to the outlet 602; a rectifier 200 is installed between the inlet 601 and the impeller 700, and the adjusting plate I110 is opposite to the blades of the impeller 700.

[0068] During assembly, the rectifier 200, regulating component II 400, regulating component III 500 and impeller 700 are respectively installed on the bracket 300. Then the assembly is installed inside the housing 600 and positioned between the inlet 601 and the outlet 602. The flange 800 is installed on the top of the housing 600 and the bracket 300 is pressed and fixed by the flange 800.

[0069] The rotor-type water meter described in this embodiment has the technical effects of the aforementioned flow error adjustment mechanism, which is beneficial to improving the flow accuracy and adjustable range of the water meter, and will not be elaborated further here.

[0070] The flow error adjustment method provided in this embodiment of the invention is applicable to a rotor-type water meter and employs the flow error adjustment mechanism described in the above embodiments. The flow error adjustment method includes: adjusting the rotation of the adjusting plate I110 via adjusting component I120 to change the angle between the water flow passing through the rectifier 200 and the blades of the impeller 700. Furthermore, the flow error adjustment method also includes driving and locking the adjusting plate II410 via adjusting component II420, and driving and locking the adjusting plate III510 via adjusting component III520. Adjusting components II400 and III500 mainly adjust small flow errors, and their combination can achieve a larger adjustment range. Adjusting component I100 mainly adjusts large flow errors. The combined use of adjusting components I100, II400, and III500 not only expands the error adjustment range but also makes the flow performance curve of the water meter smoother.

[0071] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
